Bomber shared by AdamC on 10/15/16.
Dark mahogany body shows high clarity and auburn highlights. Light tan head on top is medium-sized with moderate to moderately low retention.
Very "beany" roast notes in the nose are backed by soft chocolate and caramel malt notes. Earthy, rather damp and old seems to be the coffee and there’s very little here to brighten the experience or entice. Some vanilla, perhaps? Maybe a bit of plummy fruitiness. Kind of grasping.
In the mouth it’s very weak, with poor, loose carbonation and a watery, thin texture. Coffee seems heavily watered down/washed out and is very stale and beany. Peanuts, soil, leaves....not much positive here.

Dark brown, no head. huge cap hiss no carb really on the pour.The aroma is really good. coffee overload with a little cream. Creamy mouthfeel, dense with a bitter finish. Loads of coffee as the label suggests. Very thin mouthfeel, almost no malt for the ABV. Thin and easy to drink.

AdamChandler on this 22 oz. bottle share. Thanks bud! Pitch black color, thin bubbles white head. Aroma is a decent amount of coffee, weak chocolate, and light earth.
The aroma gave me hope however, a bit disappointed overall. Thin body, with a very weak malt character. I really was hoping for some roasted malt. The only way to describe this malt character is flimsy. Flimsy in every sense of the word. Another below average Woodstock Inn brew. If you have a bottle from earlier this year, you better drink it now.

Poured into a pint glass, the appearance was a ruddy slight murky burnt dark orange to brown color. Foamy white head dissipated nicely. Sly lacing.
The aroma starts with some sweet bready malts. Toffee and caramel malts, light smoke, sly peat. Low dried grassiness.
The flavor brings it together with a nice sessionable smooth sweet feel to it. Low ABV helps keep the smooth pace moving nicely over my tongue. Just a tickle of carbonation on my tongue.
Overall, decent enough Scottish ale that I could have again.

This was poured into a nonic pint glass.
The appearance was a soft glazy looking burnt orange color with a lasting foamy white head. Head dissipates at a nice pace, nice looking rings of foamy lace weave around the glass.
The aroma starts off with some sweet malts closing in on some bitter grassy to light tobacco.
The flavor leans dried grassy sweet with a light clean smooth dried tobacco-ish aftertaste (acceptable, yet good). Semi-sticky finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionable smooth feel to it. Carbonation seems to ride fairly light. Tobacco dryness creates an acceptable clingy-ness to it.
Overall, English styled IPA, good for what it is, if anything. And lack of soapiness and diacetyl helps to make this one one of the nicer beers of this brewery.

Pours pale straw into a shaker. Bright white voluminous head consumes two glasses and tophats the second. Tart lemon aromas. Sharp with lemon and blueberry upfront turning to sour yogurt meringue before the lasting bitter crushed seed finish.

Bottle, camping, 7/2/2016. Decent aroma of nutty and earthy malts. Light hops. Weird fruitiness comes through on the flavor and the brown ale flavors fall off. Way over carbonated, which hurts drinkability a lot. One bottle was more than enough.

650 ml bottle with the best by May, 2016 ticked on the edge of the label. Almost see through brown color, normal carbonation. Weak head retention. Aroma is caramel malt, weakly nutty like hints. Weak earthy note.
Not much in the way of toasted nuts or big malts. Mostly just weak caramel malt. Weak earthy bitterness. Body is very watery and light. Mouthfeel is more water then malts or character. It is not undrinkable, very below average in every regard.

12 oz. bottle. Lightly hazy golden color, normal carbonation. Aroma is weak lemon, a nuance of blueberries, pale grain.
The aroma had me hopeful but.... The body is watery thin, fizzy carbonation. It’s like drinking watered down blueberry lemonade with carbonation. It’s more like a watered down shandy. Gosh, this is not inspiring.
